rpauested to bring their articles
Jnr the bazaar to the Club room
Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock.
You are invited to attend the
r P. C. bazaar Dec. 6th, at 2

Julian M. Gregory were guests of
the Leonidas Polk chapter of the
F. P. C. at Chapel Hill Tuesday
afternoon. Mrs. Johnson, as di
rector of the 7th district, address
ed the chapter.
The Ladies’ Aid of Buckhorn

In addition to the magistrates
recently elected in Bear Creek
township, as listed in this paper,
Mr. Geo. H. Hancock is to be added
as an appointee of the Governor a
few months ago for a term of four
years.
Pr. and Mrs. M. W. Gibson of
High Point spent Sunday with Mr.
and Mrs. C. O. Gilmore on Siler
City Rt. 5.
That is a fine opportunity to see
Amos and Andy at the Gem Thea
tre, Siler City. See advertisement.
There is no question about its be
ing worth the money.
The Children of the Confederacy
had a delightful meeting Friday !
afternoon with Miss Maggie Horne.
Miss Carrie Jackson talked on the
subject of the Jefferson Davis
Highway, and an account of Mrs.
Anderson’s model of the highway
shown at Asheville was read. The
subject for the meeting was the
“Women of the Confederacy”.
Pieces were read by Misses Jauni
ta Overacre, Mary Brewer, Camie
Hamlet, Margaret Guin, and Eula
Johnson. The memorial to Mrs.
Henry A. London at the Asheville
convention was read by Margaret
Guin. Delightful refreshments were
served by the hostess.
The ginnings of cotton in Chath
am up to Nov. 14th, amounted to
3496 bales as against the same date
last year. It would appear from this
that the crop this year will be very
little larger than last year’s, as
the crop was much earlier this year
than last. Cotton was much better
on the average, but there must
have been considerably less planted.
It is doubtful if Chatham will ever
raise as much as 10,000 bales a
year again.
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. E. Hunt, of
Charlotte, and Miss Eleanor Wright,
of Raleigh, were guests of Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Hunt Thanksgiving
week.
Mrs. Mattie E. Gardner. Miss
Mary Gardner, and Mrs. Harry G.
Hunt, of Raleigh, spent Thanks
giving dav as guests of Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Hunt.
Mr. A. B. Carter, prosperous
mill owner of Gastonia, came to the
funeral of his old friend H. A.
Bynum. Mr. Carter began his career
as a cotton manufacturer at the
very bottom when he was a child
at Bynum. He worked and studied
eighteen months at Lowell, Mass.,
then became superintendent of a
mill at Atlanta, Ga. He now owns
a mill outright in Gastonia and is
reckoned as a rich man. In fact
we know that he was able to give
Rutherford College $5,000 recent
ly. It is certain that conditions at
Mr. Carter’s mill cannot be com
pared with the conditions when Mr.
Carter as a child was a mill em
ployee, for he began at seven years
of age. Yet he is no runt intellec
tually or physcially. His friends in
Chatham are proud of the career j
of the lad of thirty to forty years I
ago. His mill runs day and night.

Mr. T. J. Alexander, of Virginia,
is in Chatham with the expectation
of buying a farm if he finds what
he wants. He has long experience in
crop and dairy farming. He wants a
place on which he can use real
farm machinery.
Mr. C. F. Farrell, who for the
past eight months has been working
at Burlington, spent Thanksgiving
at home.
Dr. R. S. Roberson, of Greensboro,
spent a few days here, taking care
of the practice of Dr. Chapin while
the latter was off on a visit to
.friends in Penssylvania. Dr. Roberson
graduated last summer at Richmond
Medical College and immediately
located in Greensboro. He is a son
of the late Dr. R. M. Roberson, who
died in his prime.
Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Harris, who
now live in Brunswick county, where
Mr. Harris is engaged in the saw
mill • business, after coming to the
funeral of Mrs. Harris’s brother,
Dr. J. C. Thrailkill, remained in the
county for several days.
Miss Camilla Gilmore, who has
been employed in a commercial
i printing plant at Kingsport, Tenn.,
is at home for the present.
Miss Camilla Powell come in from

Miss Bessie Chapin returned with
her for a visit of a day or two.

and daughter and Mr. and Mrs. O.
J. Peterson came up from Sampson

Mr. Roland Glenn is home from
the Moore county hospital, where
he spent several days after being
injured in an automobile accident.
He is still confined to his home.
The young man lost practically all
of his best clothes as a consequence
of the wreck, his overcoat, shoes,
and dress coat being badly torn
up. But the worst thing is an in
jury to his back, which, however, it
is hoped will not prove very serious.
Mr. G. R. Pilkington and little
grandson George Johnson visited
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Nooe at Ridge
way, S. C., Thanksgiving.
Three hundred subscribers by re
newing subscriptions without cost
to the Record can put the paper
in good condition. But it iwi'l
take the large part of the income
from three hundred renewals to
have to run all over Chatham county
to find those that are ready to
renew. It is a time when we must
simply depend upon you. There is
no use struggling when every effort
counts for the worse. The 300 re
newals suggested would do us more
good than the great campaigns with
gifts of automobiles and a big
hurrah are doing some of the neigh
boring papers. Their efforts result
in more waste than profit. We are
trying to live and let live. All we
ask of subscribers is that they ap
preciate this fact and treat us the
same way.
Mr. Wm. Tait Norment, sales
man for Jones Department Store
at Siler City, but a native of Lum
berton, was married at Lumberton
Thanksgiving Day to Miss Vonrre
McDonald Meshaw, daughter of Mr.

Kissimmee, Fla. She is a trained
nurse, having graduated from the
Baker Hospital in 1929 and since
that time been located in Lumber-
I ton. The groom is a son of the
I editor’s old friend Mr. Douglas Nor
-1 ment of Lumlberton.

We are sorry some people look at
people who lease their game rights
as they do, especially when the man
leasing has in mind to protect the
game for the period of the lease
and thus help all to have plenty
'ater. Anybody that accepts lease
money and then goes ahead and
kills the game is no less than a
rouge. Nor has a person outside the
leased area any right to hunt on
those leased lands or to try to scat
ter the turkeys on them. What a
pity we do not all appreciate our
game warden and cooperate with
him. He will appreciate any informa
tion that will help him to enforce the
law.
As assistant to Mr. V. R. Johnson
in this township in the collection
of funds for the starving Chinese
children, I ask all wishing to contri
bute to the good cause to make
their contributions through their
pastors or .S S. superintendents.
Juniors may contribute through Mr.
J. R. Goodwin and Sons and Daugh
ters of Liberty through Mrs. R. G.
Perry.
FACTORS OF
SAFETY
(From The Hamlet News-Messenger)
Eight factors are assigned
as entering into safety of mo
tor travel. They are: (1) dis- ;
ferences of climate (more wet
or stormy days) ; (2) differ
ences in latitude (affecting
number of hours of daylight
and number of summer
months) ; (3) difference in
driving habits; (4) presence
or absence of rapid transit
lines; (5) distribution and
density of population; (6) ef
ficiency of street lighting; (7)
relative frequency of grade
crossings; (8) quality of high
way design.
The human element is
greater than the mechanical,
but each of the above named
factors certainly counts in the
comparison of accident totals
of various sections of the
country.

Nine-Tenths Preventable
' Nine-tenths of all the diseases of the
American people can bo traced directly
to constipation, doctors say. Constipa
tion throws into the system poisons
which taint and weaken every organ
of the body and make them easy
victims for any germs which attack
them. Prevent constipation and you
will avoid nine-tenths of all diseases,
with their consequent pain and fi
nancial losses. Herbine, the good old
vegetable cathartic, will prevent con
stipation in a natural, easy and
pleasant way. Get a bottle today from
